The document summarizes how three cities - Beijing, Seoul, and Sydney - have changed over time from 1900 to 2000 in terms of population, buildings, transportation, and functions. It notes that all three cities saw increasing population and development, transforming from dispersed rural settlements to modern urban areas with tall buildings, roads, and other infrastructure. The empty spaces disappeared as the cities grew rapidly in the later 20th century.

13. W h a t I l e a r n t I learnt a lot of things during making this power point. Beijing China Seoul South Korea Sydney Australia I am living in Beijing but I didnt really know about settlement of this city. I could realized that it changed a lot. Also, nowadays, Beijing became a modern and great city but Chinese government said Beijing is still developing and they want to make this city to be the best city. I am from Seoul, South Korea, so I chose this city. Researching about Seoul was pretty fun and easy to me because I already knew about Seouls settlement. However, I was surprised when I found the picture of 1900s. Also, I learnt so many things about Seoul. I chose Sydney because I wanted to know about Sydney which is the capital city of Australia. Also, in 2000 the Olympics was held in Sydney so it was easy to find out the differences between over 50 years. I learnt the pattern of this settlement changed a lot.
14. Conclusion No Settlement remains the same forever. Settlements CHANGE over time
